PROTECTING GREELEY’S FUTURE STARTS RIGHT HERE
We’re proud to call Greeley home - a place rooted in hard work, community values, and a deep respect for our shared future. But when the city approved a billion-dollar development deal that puts our fellow citizens and taxpayers at risk with over a billion dollars on the line and little oversight, we knew it was time to speak up.
Greeley Demands Better 🧡
We are your neighbors, business owners, parents, teachers, farmers, and longtime residents of Greeley who love this community and believe in its future. We came together as a nonpartisan, grassroots coalition because we believe Greeley demands better than a $1.1 billion financial risk with no guarantee of return.
At the heart of our campaign is a simple principle:
Public Risk. Private Reward. That’s NOT how Greeley does business.
The city’s approval of the Cascadia West development financing and zoning plan puts taxpayers on the hook for over a billion in long-term obligations, mortgaging major city buildings — including City Hall, the police station, bus stations, and fire facilities — to back a private developer’s entertainment district. The developer assumes no equity risk and is guaranteed millions in profit no matter what.
We’re not opposed to growth or revitalization. In fact, we welcome investment that reflects the values of this community and shares the risks and rewards fairly. But this deal doesn’t do that. It was crafted behind closed doors, rushed without voter input, and undermines the city’s credit, priorities, and trust.
We believe Greeley can grow — responsibly, transparently, and in a way that benefits all of us, not just a few. That is the purpose of our 100% Greeley-driven grassroots citizen’s initiative, Greeley Demands Better. Join us!
